You need use DestroyActor("Event Actor") or specify the clone name.
If you use DestroyActor("player") all player actors will be destroyed.

I do event actor, and It still destroys all of them. In the "actor.1" script, I do DestroyActor("actor.1") and it changes it to "actor.1" in the "actor.2", and "actor.3" scripts too. this is realy wierd this never happened to me before!

You'll need to put the script into a different actor so that it can reference the clones individually, maybe in view, or something that's always on screen or even a dummy actor?

To be honest, I'm surprised that "Event Actor" doesn't work from the clones script.
